I really like these tires for the cost.

Was surprised at how fast the tires came after being ordered. All 4 came at the same time. They ride smoothly and are quiet. So far so good.

Very nice tires for the price. They went on a 2013 civic and it rides fantastic. We'll see about the wear but they seem to be fine

These tires are a lot louder than what I am accustomed to. They perform well, but they're loud.

I don't regularly drive the vehicle these tires are on but she says ... they handle good and roll well but have some noise. When I have driven it I didn't notice the noise, but I've been driving a 2500 with mudders. Too new to rate tread wear and we use a set of studded tires in the Winter.

Put these on my daughters POS Hyundai. Just wanted some decent tires to get her to points A and B safely. Seem to be good tires, holding up well and she says they are great in the iowa snow and craptastic weather.

Tires ride nice and smooth. Grip well in dry and in rain. Live in Florida, so winter is N/A. Can't comment on treadwear, only had them for approximately 250 miles.
